2023 is already shaping up to be an undoubtedly big year for Power actor Rotimi, who welcomed his second child with fiancée Vanessa Mdee days ago. He shared the exciting news with fans on social media, not holding back while expressing his obvious joy and love for his family. Their latest arrival is named Imani and comes less than two years after their first, Seven, was born in September 2021.
As ESSENCE notes, it was at the outlet’s festival that the lovers previously met in 2019. At the time, Rotimi brought another woman along as his date but wound up leaving her behind in favour of Mdee, who was living in Tanzania at the time. Once their relationship became serious, she made the move to Atlanta to be closer to her famous partner. “I feel like we’ve been together for lifetimes,” the 34-year-old explained back in 2020.
Rotimi’s Fiancée, Vanessa Mdee
“So, this is just this body and I just met her again on this earth. It felt like that from day one, and I’ve never had a connection that instantly. [I told her] I don’t want you to go back to Africa. I want you to stay with me,” Rotimi added, revealing the undeniably deeply romantic nature of their connection. Throughout their relationship, he’s regularly given Mdee her flowers, especially when it comes to carrying and mothering his children.
On Monday (March 6), the “In My Bed” hitmaker was happy to let social media know that he’s finally a father of two. “I Still Can’t Wrap My Mind Around To Think I’m Here To Announce The Beautiful Birth Of My Daughter Imani,” Rotimi’s heartfelt caption reads. “I’m Overwhelmed With Love Today @vanessamdee You Are Nothing Short Of A Superhero! Our Second Child Together & Seven Now Has A Little Sister To Watch Over,” he added before thanking God for the beautiful blessings in his life as well.
Baby No. 2 Is Here
After recovering from giving birth to Imani, Mdee also had some sweet content to post. In a video, we see each member of their growing family put one hand down at a time, from biggest to smallest, reminding the world that they’re now four instead of three. “What shall I render to JEHOVA? FATHER GOD JESUS CHRIST MASTER HOLY SPIRIT THANKYOU YOU’VE BEEN SOOOOOOO GOOD TO ME,” she expressed her gratitude.

It’s been roughly a year and a half since Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid opted to end their relationship. Of course, the former lovers will remain in each other’s lives for the foreseeable future due to the 3-year-old daughter they share. For the most part, the model and singer have kept quiet about the drama leading to their breakup, though she recently had a positive update to give regarding the new relationship that they’ve foraged as co-parents.
The pair first crossed paths in late 2015, following Hadid’s split from Joe Jonas. By early 2016, they caused a serious stir by making out in Malik’s “Pillowtalk” music video. Shortly after it was confirmed that they were a pair, and their red carpet debut took place at that year’s Met Gala. Unfortunately, they called things quits in June, after just seven months together – but only for five days.
Gigi and Zayn’s Tumultuous Split
As Us notes, the couple went on to grace the cover of Vogue in August 2017, and in January 2018, Malik added more ink to his body in honour of his partner. Two months later, their second breakup took place, and as you can imagine, they fell into a similar pattern over the following years. Their daughter was born in September 2020, and in October 2021, their breakup made headlines – along with rumours that the One Direction alum allegedly pushed Yolanda Hadid into a dresser.
Malik previously denied striking his child’s grandmother, though he pleaded no contest to harassment charges in court. As a result, he was sentenced to 360 days of probation, as well as mandatory anger management and domestic violence programs. Hadid never publicly addressed the concerning situation, though her latest comments about co-parenting with her ex make it seem as though they’re trying to put their issues behind them.
Co-Parenting Baby Khai
While speaking with the Times of London, the 27-year-old revealed that she makes her work schedule based on when Khai will be “with her dad.” Hadid explained to the outlet, “[the fact] that she can be with both parents makes me very happy.” Aside from that, little is known about the nature of Gigi and Zayn’s current relationship, but we certainly wish them the best.

Tyga and Avril Lavigne were just spotted kissing at Paris Fashion Week following intense rumors online. While neither party has confirmed a fling in, say, an Instagram post, the smooch certainly makes things hard to dent. Moreover, the assumed couple posted plenty of stylish fits on their socials in celebration of the fashion event. Still, as soon as pictures spread across social media, fans had a field day. Hopefully the two can make a proper assessment on their status without focusing on media breathing down their necks.
Furthermore, rumors started flying after the pop-punk singer’s split from Mod Sun. “Avril and Mod Sun have been on and off for the past two months, but are no longer together as a couple,” an insider said. “Avril and Tyga are genuinely friends and nothing more,” added a source to PEOPLE. “There was absolutely no third party involved in the split.” Meanwhile, one of Mod Sun’s reps expressed surprise at the news. “They were together and engaged as of three days ago when Mod left for tour so if anything has changed that’s news to him,” they expressed. “Mod will be performing tonight in Portland at The Hawthorne Theater.”
Tyge & Avril Lavigne Spotted Kissing
Not only that, but the first time the two artists in question sparked gossip was a NOBU date. After they left in the same vehicle, many caught the hint that something deeper was going on. Amid their outings in Paris, Mod actually took to Instagram to share his feelings. “In 1 week my entire life completely changed…I just know there’s a plan for it all,” he wrote. “I’ll keep my head up + always listen to my heart, even when it feels broken [broken heart emoji]. Being surrounded by love every night on tour has been an absolute blessing. I have the best friends in the entire world, thanks for always having my back. See you on stage.”
Of course, many fans expressed shock at the pairing, but that’s the way love goes sometimes. It’s unclear whether all this speculation is due to an actual relationship between the two. Still, time will tell if things are official, and Twitter will continue to light a fire over it. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest updates on Tyga and Avril Lavigne.
Whoopi Goldberg just revealed that she didn’t love any of the men she married in a conversation with Piers Morgan. While the TV host expressed a bit of shock at the notion, the EGOT said that she thought that marriage was normal, and that’s why she did it. Moreover, she stated that she likes to be alone and realized along the way that a union like that just wasn’t for her. However, she did say she’s been in love once, but she wouldn’t budge on Morgan’s questioning about who the mystery man was. All in all, her comments make the revelation that she helped Meagan Good with her divorce more understandable.
“No, I don’t think so. But it’s the truth. I think there’s a Vegas [wedding], and maybe one was a church, and one was a house wedding. I wanted to feel normal, and it seemed to me that if I was married, I’d have a much more normal life. But clearly, that’s not the case, that’s not a good reason to get married. You have to actually want a life with someone through ups and downs. I just discovered that wasn’t for me.”
Whoopi Goldberg Speaks On Never Falling In Love With The Men She Married
Later, Morgan asked her whether she’s ever fallen in love. She affirmed that she was in love one time, and the host followed up a question on whether they’re a famous person. “No, and that’s the beauty. I snuck a couple in on y’all and nobody knew. What I know now is that I don’t want to live with anyone. I think I tried it with probably the right guys for other people. But it wasn’t them, it was me. I actually like living on my own, I like being able to go up and down my stairs farting like a queen and not having to explain. I like my privacy.”
Meanwhile, the TV icon apologized again for disparaging remarks she made about the Holocaust, which she said wasn’t about race. “I’m still learning a lot and believe me, I heard everything everyone said to me,” she expressed. “I believe that the Holocaust was about race, and I am still as sorry now as I was then that I upset, hurt and angered people. My sincere apologies again, especially to everyone who thought this was a fresh rehash of the subject. I promise it was not. In this time of rising antisemitism, I want to be very clear when I say that I always stood with the Jewish people and always will. My support for them has not wavered and never will.” Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Whoopi Goldberg.
Since rising to fame as a Canadian pop-punk artist over two decades ago, Avril Lavigne has dated an interesting roster of men. It begins with her guitarist, Jesse Colburn in 2002 (potentially the inspiration for “Sk8r Boi?). After him comes Deryck Whibley of Sum 41. As E! reports, she and Brody Jenner tattooed each other’s name in 2010 but eventually broke up in early 2012. After that, she met her first husband, Chad Kroeger.
The Nickleback frontman and his blonde beauty tied the knot on Canada day in July 2013, but their marriage lasted only two years before Lavigne shared news of their breakup via Instagram. Phillip Sarofin, a billionaire’s son, and Pete Jonas of Jagwar Twin were who the “Girlfriend” hitmaker dated next, but neither relationship lasted long. In 2020 she met Mod Sun while making music, and after a whirlwind romance, the two were engaged by March 2022.
Avril and Mod Sun Are Over
After they shared the big news, the creative couple seemed to be going strong. However, in the final week of February, Lavigne was seen snuggling up to “Rack City” artist Tyga for a hug outside NOBU. At the time, the two left the restaurant in the same vehicle, and have been spotted out together regularly since. As the gossip began to circulate online, many expressed concern for Mod Sun, pondering the status of his engagement. Hours later, reports revealed that the pair called things off.
“[They’ve] been on and off for the past two months, but are no longer together as a couple,” a source said at the time. Additionally, they made it known that “Avril and Tyga are genuinely friends and nothing more. There was absolutely no third party involved in the split,” as speculation began brewing online. Even if they are strictly platonic, the increasing frequency of the two artist’s time together has social media expecting a relationship confirmation from them soon.
Fashion Week Fun
Late last week, the rumoured lovers made headlines for attending a Paris Fashion Week runway show together. A few days later, paparazzi cameras caught them showing up at Leonardo DiCaprio’s party in the city of love. On Sunday (March 5), they were at Ottolinger’s presentation, where Lavigne donned a grey miniskirt and an oversized white shirt.
For his part, the father of one wore a matching jacket and trousers in a cool grey shade, using sunglasses to shield his eyes. There wasn’t noticeable PDA between the pair at any show, though we’re eager to see if they become more friendly at future events. Keep scrolling to see more of Tyga and Avril Lavigne’s Paris Fashion Week fun, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
Cher and AE Edwards certainly aren’t the most conventional couple, but they have far more in common than meets the eye. The 76-year-old has graced the world with countless pop anthems over the years, and her younger beau happens to be musically inclined as well. It seems this is just one of their common bonds, and they’ve been working together to hopefully generate some revenue while letting their creativity flow.
Last Thursday (March 2), the fashion icon was attending the Carol Burnett: 90 Years of Laughter + Love taping when she spilled some tea about her and Edwards’ latest endeavours. “I’m going to England to make two albums. Some of the songs Alexander gave me, so I’m pretty excited about that,” she exclusively told E! at the time. “He’s a producer and a writer and he does everything, so I’m happy.”
In the Studio
Aside from the forthcoming LPs, Cher also revealed that she plans to tour later this year. “I’m trying to get myself in shape,” she said. “I think like any artist when you’ve got something good, you’re excited.” It remains unclear exactly what the California-born performer plans to deliver on her albums, but we’re curious to hear what she and Edwards can cook up together.
It’s been nearly five years since the vocalist’s last release, Dancing Queen arrived on DSPs in 2018. Prior to that, she shared Closer to the Truth in 2013, Living Proof in 2001, and Not Commercial in 2000. Some of Cher’s best-known songs from her discography are “If I Could Turn Back Time,” “Strong Enough,” and “Believe.” With any luck, she and her beau will be able to craft a collaboration that does just as well.
Cher and AE’s Age-Gap Antics
The couple, who have 39 years dividing them, previously confirmed their relationship in November 2022. They were immediately hit with criticism from nearly every corner of the internet, but have continued to enjoy their time together regardless. Edwards, for his part, shares a son with Amber Rose but has obviously since happily moved on with Cher. As for the Armenian starlet, she welcomed two kids in her younger years. Are you excited to hear the couple’s upcoming music releases? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news.
Keke Palmer, 29, the triple threat can now add mom to her many roles, as her acting and singing have already made her a standout both in life and on screen. Making her debut in the 2004 film Barbershop 2: Back in Business, Palmer quickly became likable from her honest and kind demeanor, making her a favored co-star to want to be around.
Keke Palmer Debuted As An Actress And Singer
Making a transition to television in the same year of her movie debut, Palmer ultimately went on to star in multiple Nickelodeon series like True Jackson, VP and Winx Club. When she displayed how raw her skill was at such a young age, Palmer continued to succeed in the industry with more serious roles that would later catapult her into the respected actress she is today. Starring in films like Akeelah and the Bee, Madea’s Family Reunion, Jump In!, and The Longshots, Palmer has spent most of her life in the film world.
When her adult life came around, so did the adult roles. No age could define Palmer on screen, as her ability has transcended into one of the greats. Taking on roles next to Tyler Perry, Queen Latifah, Whoopie Goldberg, Julia Stiles and Ice Cube, Palmer was able to gain versatile parts in films like Alice, Hustlers, and Nope. Palmer has also been a voice over actress in films like Lightyear, Unstable Fables: Tortoise vs. Hare, and multiple movies from the Ice Age franchise. Displaying even more skill, Palmer has taken her career a step further into the musical world with a 2014 role as the first African American Princess to star in a title role as Cinderella on Broadway. With Rolling Stonescalling her assertive and confident with a “biting sense of humor,” Palmer stays contributing her love for acting in every role she is given.
Palmer Explains Her Love for Her Career
In an effortless steez, Palmer epitomizes true passion behind the screen saying, “I can’t even tell anyone how it feels when I’m acting, I don’t mean to say that I don’t have to try. But there’s something in my heart that explodes, and I feel like I understand. When I’m acting, I feel like so in control and so centered. This is something that I solely get from acting and music.”
Not only has Palmer paved her own way as an actress, but she has also grounded herself as a singer and songwriter. Her 2007 debut album So Uncool charted on Billboard’s Top R&B & HipHop Albums list and was released under her contract with Atlantic Records. Palmer explains her love for music with, “Whether it be in acting, music, or even in dancing, I only want to do things that I truly connect to, and with my music, it’s everything that I am.” Though she’s now signed to Island Records, Palmer has released albums Virgo Tendencies, Pt. 1, and Virgo Tendencies, Pr. 2 along with multiple singles over the course of the previous years.
Palmer Meets Longtime Boyfriend at Diddy’s Memorial Day Party in 2021
Palmer started dating boyfriend, Darius Jackson, 29, after meeting at Rae and Diddy’s Memorial Day Party in 2021. Keeping their relationship private for only a few months, the couple have remained close since their first encounter. Telling Bustle in an interview, Palmer says, “This is the happiest I’ve ever felt with someone. So why would I go out of my way to hide this person? That’s a lot more work than just living in my life and being in my life. You know what I’m saying?”
Being in the entertainment industry as well, Jackson is both an actor and fitness trainer. Attending Fresno State University on a football scholarship, Jackson continued in the footsteps of his older brother Saranus Jackson who played sports before launching his acting career in 2017 in the series Insecure. Though he hasn’t much acting fame, Jackson can be linked to the upcoming sci-fi film Dawn of the Predator as Agent Mayo. In the film, a group of agents are deployed to a robot-controlled territory, and upon their attempt to retrieve technology from an alien crash, they are faced with war against the aliens.
Palmer Gives Birth to Son ‘Leo’
Though acting and singing may have been the prevalence of Palmer’s whole life, her newest role as ‘mom’ may be her most important one yet. Palmer gave birth on February 25, 2023 to a healthy baby boy, Leodis Andrellton Jackson. Though it’s a first time being a parent for Palmer, she stays happily grateful for her experience, taking to social media to say, “”Hey Son!!!! Born during Black History Month, with a name to match! LEODIS ANDRELLTON JACKSON, welcome to the world baby Leo.”
Keke Palmer Has Ideas for the Future of Her Career
Though Palmer is most focused on being a new mom with her longtime boyfriend, Jackson, she still has her eyes set on new horizons after earning a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Talk Show Host for her appearance alongside Michael Strahan on Strahan, Sara, and Keke from 2019-2020. Palmer told Bustle she envisions herself giving back to her community in the near future by interning a plethora of young black adults for the directing and producing of filmssaying, “I imagine myself directing movies and producing films and having a bunch of different interns that are just in college.”
Continuing, “Young, black kids that are learning how to be a grip, that are learning how to be a DP, that are learning how to work in production, or as a designer, or people that are learning how to be a teamster, I really want to educate the young kids on the fact that you don’t just have to work in Hollywood as a performer, or as a writer, or as a director — your ass could be a crafty.”
With 20 years in the industry, Palmer has exhibited the essence of a true star. In following her own advice, “You can do anything as long as you don’t stop believing. When it is meant to be, it will be. You just have to follow your heart,” Palmer continues to thrive as a new mom still wanting to work, as her love for acting and singing is endless.
For Ari Lennox, 2023 is off to a strong start. After finally delivering her sophomore album, age/sex/location, at the end of last year, the Dreamville artist gave us her first new vocals in a minute on the Creed III soundtrack. Along with several of her labelmates, and other hip-hop and R&B favourites, she helps paint a perfect sonic picture for Michael B. Jordan’s directorial debut. “Greater” finds her showing out on her own, but on “Talk To Me,” she was joined by Omen and OG DAYV.
Aside from that exciting project, which landed on Friday (March 3), Lennox has also been busy entertaining audiences on stages all across the nation. Her tour kicked off a few weeks ago, boasting many sold-out dates and sultry performances from the Washington, D.C. native. From time to time, she’s even been teasing social media with tantalizing thirst traps of her various tour looks. Most recently, the “Pressure” hitmaker gave us a preview of the look she rocked in Connecticut.
More Tour Thirst Traps
On Sunday (March 5), the R&B diva posted up in a pair of tiny denim shorts and a shiny metal bra on Twitter. “Connecticut was love,” she wrote in her tweet, including an image of her singing to a full crowd gazing back at her with immense love. “This was an amazing show from top to bottom,” one attendee responded to Lennox’s commemorative post. “Vocals are consistently fire. Ari is a sanger. When you are ready a live album will be [amazing], I feel like all the greats have one.”
While her new thirst traps are certainly getting their share of attention, another hot topic of conversation surrounding the 31-year-old right now is her sexuality. Over the weekend, a TikTok featuring a throwback photo of Lennox from 2016 surfaced online, showing her without makeup and in a more masculine presenting outfit. “Mmm honey, was Ari Lennox dykin’ it out here in these streets before she got famous?” one user asked. “‘Cuz her energy makes this make sense to me.”
Ari Responds to Twitter’s Sexuality Speculation
By the time she saw the tweet for herself, Lennox couldn’t help but laugh at the situation. “I leave Twitter for three days… THREE DAYS,” she joked. In the replies, others pulled out more past photos of the singer that show her dressing similarly. “Explain this too, it’s giving very much butch,” someone pressed her for answers. “Let me not know how to dress in peace, DAMN,” she clapped back.
Elsewhere online, many are pointing out that she didn’t explicitly deny the rumours, leaving them with a shred of hope that the entertainer might play for both teams. Of course, nothing has been confirmed, but she’s been publicly linked to a few men throughout her career. Keep scrolling for more of Twitter’s discourse about Ari Lennox’s sexuality, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
Halle Bailey and DDG are one of the hottest couples out right now. Though, we do not know how long they have really been each other’s lives, we can only speculate. One of the first times we’ve seen the young couple together was on Christmas in 2021. There was a photo circulating online of Halle at DDG’s home for the holidays. The rumors started then, but didn’t really heat up until last year.
From attending awards shows to red carpet movie premieres, the past year DDG and Halle have been putting their relationship on display. With rumors, old flames, and social media, it’s hard to have a drama-free relationship these days. But, they both manage to keep things together. Although we don’t know everything about their relationship, we have been keeping up with their love life.
Here’s a timeline of DDG and Halle Bailey’s romance.
The Beginning

February 19, 2022: DDG defends Halle after a fan makes a negative comment about her on social media. Bailey went on Instagram Live to show how she looks without any makeup on. While watching live, DDG took to the comments to let her know how beautiful she is. One user didn’t feel the same way and wrote, “She’s not cute to me”.
DDG had time to clap back and responded, “You too old for this. Yo [p*****] barely work [a clown emoji] look in da mirror . U a 2 on yo BEST day.”

August 6, 2022: A month after DDG made his sweet comments about his girl, she returned the favor. In an Essence cover feature, Halle says she is “for sure” in love with DDG as she has been a fan of his since 2015, when DDG was a Youtuber.
August 26, 2022: DDG filmed the video for his song, “If I Want You”, and guess who was the star? None other than his lover, Halle. Not only is she the star of the video, but she also provides some background vocals.
Halle & DDG Out & About
September 23, 2022: DDG speaks with DJ Bootleg Kev, in which he discusses the racist backlash Halle has been getting from being casted as Ariel, in the new version of The Little Mermaid.
”I didn’t know people was this racist-I didn’t know this was a thing.” He continued to express his confusion with the racist remarks. ”I thought this s*** was gone already, I thought that s*** was gone! I thought Martin Luther King canceled that s*** out! This s*** is crazy, I was like ‘what the f*** is these n***** talking about?’”

Drama in 2023
This year, the young couple are facing some challenges. Earlier this year, after posting a cryptic tweet, DDG had to clear up rumors that he and Halle are not breaking up. Fans were confused about his tweet: ”All these girls the same ain’t no wayy” with a crying face emoji. He also removed all of his pictures of her on his Instagram and stopped following her.
Chloe and Halle’s older sister, Sky, was confused as well and wanted answers. She took to Instagram Live to blast DDG, but soon recanted her statements as Halle assured her, she wasn’t having any issues with her man.
DDG responded on Twitter stating that there was no cheating going on, reminding people that it’s just Twitter.
DDG x Halle vs Rubi Rose
Last month, after Halle posted a photo of herself to Instagram, fans noticed she was wearing the same shirt Rubi Rose wore when she was with DDG. Rose and DDG dated briefly in 2020. She saw this as well and took to Twitter to call the rapper a “weirdo”, but she didn’t stop there.
Rose exposed DDG for sliding in her DMs not too long ago. Apparently, DDG hit Rose up first with intentions to link up. Rose responds by writing, “U hitting me the day y’all argue is so u lol” and DDG replied, “lol u right, lemme go heal first”. The two former flames went back and forth on Twitter with insults.
Bailey chimed in and stood by her man with the tweet, ”the devil is working lol please don’t feed into the lies, especially from a third party”.
Last week, the couple was at Milan Fashion Week with all smiles. It’s safe to say they are doing well!
Let us know if you think Halle and DDG will last in the comments.
The Rolling Loud California festivities have nearly wrapped for another season, but there’s still plenty to discuss regarding the countless performances. Some of Saturday’s biggest sets came from Rubi Rose, Duke Deuce, Curren$y, Young Nudy, Chief Keef, and Kevin Gates. The name attendees were most excited to see return to the stage, however, was Travis Scott, whose set ultimately only lasted about 30 minutes.
La Flame’s show may have been a flop, but thankfully, Lil Wayne saved the evening by bringing out Nicki Minaj, who reminded everyone in the vicinity exactly why she’s the Queen of Rap. Earlier in the day, several other female artists impressed, including Mellow Rackz, and BIA, who debuted her new “SIXTEEN” single. Additionally, the City Girls put in work, letting us know that their next project will be seriously hot.
City Girls Crush Their Rolling Loud Set
On Saturday (March 4) evening, Yung Miami and JT entertained thousands of fans in person and at home on the Rolling Loud stage. Both rap divas had their curves on full display in coordinated, feather-clad blue and yellow outfits, which complimented their music’s fun, confident vibe. They pulled out plenty of fan favourites from their discography, and also surprised the crowd while teasing new music.
While the City Girls grooved and rapped along to the bass-heavy beat for “Piñata,” their dancers markedly moved their behinds with the music. Though they didn’t know the few bars yesterday, they’re sure to be stuck in fans’ heads after listening to the teaser on repeat. It remains unclear when we’ll be hearing Caresha and her partner in rhyme’s catchy song, but fingers crossed that it lands before summer to help set the mood.
Yung Miami Isn’t Feeling Marriage
Elsewhere in the news, the REVOLT podcast host is making headlines for expressing her views on marriage. “I don’t want to get married cos I feel like men are not faithful,” she said during a recent Instagram Live session. “I take everything personal, I will never forget. If my husband cheats on me, Imma kill him.” As you may know, Yung Miami spends plenty of her free time with Diddy, though they both make it well-known that they’re still single. Read more about their unique relationship dynamics here, and check back later for more pop culture news.
